Aaron Blake: “While arguing against the motion by Trump’s lawyers to delay the May 20 trial, special counsel Jack Smith’s lawyers assured they’re ready to go and that such a delay isn’t necessary, unsurprisingly. But they also said they are ready to prove something significant that, to this point, has remained shrouded and the subject of much speculation: why Trump allegedly took and kept the documents.”
“The government apparently thinks it knows ‘what Trump intended’ with the documents. And it’s signaling that it plans to prove that intent.”
